Well howdy hoo little galaxy peeps! I am so excited to share today's post with you one because I love T-Shirts and two because I love tie dye. Fine. There is a third one, I LOVE THE GALAXY (insert a LOUD yell here). It seems everywhere I go lately there are galaxy shoes, shirts, back packs, tights and undies! Does it take a special person to wear the UNIVERSE on them, hot diggity dog, NO! Today I will show you how to dye, cut and tie a shirt so let's get started! For this project you will need: *100% cotton black tee shirt, 1-2 sizes larger than you normally wear *Bleach *Trash Bag *Scissors *Brush Tulip One Step Spray Dye *Soft Fabric Paint (optional) *Permanent Fabric Tape (optional) FYI: We are working with a BLACK shirt so when you bleach your shirt you might not get PURE white in some spots. It will start off brown then get to a lighter yellowish color. I let my bleach sit for a long time to get some really bright spots. P.S. In the picture below I have fabric paint and fabric tape that I did NOT use in this tutorial. I am sharing it because you can use it to add to the galaxy. I will let you know in the post when! Lay your shirt on top of your trash bag. Twist your shirt in certain spots then add your rubber bands to them. These rubber bands come in the packet of dye! I am using bleach (no water) and starting by pouring a little bit in the center of each knot. P.S. Go slow! Make sure to put on the gloves that come in the packet of tie dye. This bleach will stain anything it lands on so pop on a apron if you need. This is the first shade it will turn. I am kinda digging this brownish orange color! Grab a brush and add a little bleach to it. Carefully flick the bristles and you will see the bleach land on the shirt. Give it about 10 seconds then you will start seeing the color change. It's so relaxing! Do you see how the center is lighter than some other spots? This is because I kept adding a little bleach with my brush over and over. When you are happy with colors take off the rubber bands and this is what your shirt will look like. Grab your spray dye and start spraying onto your shirt. We are spraying mainly on the bleached spots! The bottles have a line on them letting you know how much water to add, pretty simple huh. Make sure to add warm water to the dye. Don't get scared to mix the colors with each other. Layering is KEY in this project! Incase you are wondering my shirt is still wet from the bleach at this point. If you want you can now add some of your colored fabric paint to the shirt. I like to flick it on and create a splatter. Grab your white fabric spray and we will start creating the stars! I swear this is the best part. Warning: You will get mesmerized which could lead to spraying way too much white! (I swear that didn't happen to me) How pretty! Time to let it sit for a few hours and dry. I like to let my shirt lay out and dry but you can put it in a plastic bag for about 5 hours! If you applied fabric paint to your shirt you might want to lay it out to dry instead of placing it in a bag. When it's dry run it under the water until it's clear then throw it in the washing machine without any soap! Let's start making the shirt! Lay your shirt on a flat surface. Cut your shirt from the bottom of one sleeve to the opposite side of shoulder sleeve (like below). Then whatever side your shoulder sleeve is still on, cut the sleeve off. Cut slits on the side that has the shoulder sleeve still connected. These are going to be the ties on the side so you will have to cut the slits depending on how tight or loose you want your shirt. You will cut 4 slits. Mine are about 18 inches long but they will vary. I like my shirt fitted. This is what your shirt should look like. Now, on the side you will cut the shirt so it's not connected anymore along the seam. It will look like an open flap. On the shoulder piece find the center and cut a slit down about 13 inches down. Cut the top part of the shoulder on the seam so we have open flaps. Now it's time to put the shirt and and tie knots where all your flaps are. It's so simple and I love that I can dress up a boring shirt in 10 minutes tops! YAY! I am so pleased with the way it came out. It's fun, vibrant and UNIQUE! The best part is you will never find a shirt like yours anywhere! Huge glittery hugs, JADERBOMB —See you in the next post! Visit me on Facebook, Twitter,Pinterest, or Instagram!

While spending more time home with the kids these days, like all of you I’m sure, It has become a challenge to keep them active and away from video games
Hi! I'm Rina, guest blogging from Mothership Scrapbook Gal! I recently hosted a tie dye party using the Tulip One-Step Tie-Dye Party kit and I wanted to share my experience with you as well as offer some tips for hosting your own successful tie dye party! What you'll need for a great tie dye party: – Tulip One-Step Tie-Dye Party Kit (includes project guide, 18 pre-measured dye colors, 90 rubber bands, 6 pairs of plastic gloves and a table cover) – Folding table(s); you'll need enough room for everyone to have a space to dye – A tablecloth (I used a black one so it would not show dye stains) – 100% white cotton tee shirts or tanks (my party was a BYO-Tee-shirt party!) – Paper towels – Zip-lock bags, so your party goers can easily transport their tie-dyed tees home – Permanent marker – Buckets filled with lukewarm water – Plastic aprons – Good food and drinks for your guests to enjoy! Before you begin, fill up all your water buckets and dye bottles and get your tie dye station ready for guests. I filled the station with everything my guests needed for tie dye success! I made sure that everyone could access the supplies easily and within arms reach. At the start of my party, I welcomed my guests with a chalkboard full of simple instructions on "how to tie-dye", so they get the basics down and be self-guided! It's also really smart to provide plastic aprons for your guests, if they are worried about accidentally dyeing their clothes! I also posted the Tulip Project Guide which includes instructions on different tie-dye styles near the tie-dye station, that way each guest could decide what type of rubber bands or folds they would need to do for their t-shirt. Once my guests selected their designs, the fun began - two of my guests were having so much fun that they asked to make another t-shirt! I was was more than happy to let them dye some extra shirts I had on hand with all the fun colors! I provided Zip-lock bags and a permanent marker so that everyone could easily bag and tag their creations to take home! I told my guests to double-bag anything that was really saturated in the dye - just in case! Here's the final reveal of two of the shirts from the party. One of my best crafty friends Bev peaced out in her creation, while my friend Aaron rocked out in red, white, and blue! My friend Desi told me that she loved how easy, mess-free, and fun the kits were to use. She also said her colors turned out super vibrant after she rinsed, washed, and dried her shirt! Now she's so addicted to dyeing that she plans to host a party too! I'm excited that my love for tie-dyeing rubbed off on her! Come visit me over on my blog Mothership Scrapbook Girl, where I share fun scrapbooking projects, tutorials, and organization tips. I also host a fun event called Crafty Happy Hour in various locations all over Southern California. Learn more about Crafty Happy Hour here.

something I've been meaning to write up for camp for awhile. I suspect the tie-dye teachers have gotten tired of explaining all the different styles and how they work. I should have done it sooner as it was actually a lot of fun to doodle it! **I have changed the copyright on this doodle so that anyone can download it and use it for their group. All I ask is that you don't sell it.** Anyone have any fun variants easy enough to teach to a crowd? Let me know and I'll add them to my collection! p.s. for anyone who's never tie-dyed, don't forget to follow the other half of the instructions available at Dharma Trading! (they also sell all the stuff you need and I really recommend their Procion dyes... still brilliant on my kids' T-shirts after three years!) p.p.s examples of actual shirts shown here.

I needed a little gift for some guild friends who have been working on their own versions of the Alternate Routes pattern, and thought I would try out a new to me dyeing technique - an Ice Dyed Parfait. The fabric I used was presoaked in a Soda Ash solution. In my large glass jar I began with 1/2m of fabric in my standard scrunch. Next add a layer of ice cubes. Then a sprinkling of dry MX dye powder. Then repeat until you fill the jar. I used three layers of fabric and ice/dye. Then you wait for it to melt.... I started a second batch, but my plastic container is not as fun to look at! A glass jar full of ice is quite well insulated! This is what it looked like after a whole night of melting. I put it in front of a space heater to help the ice finish melting. Here is the before and after of batch #2. And the results.... Batch #1 in the glass jar. (The fabrics are out of order in this picture. Fabric in the top of the picture was on the bottom of the jar, then top layer, middle) Dyes used were bottom : red/cerulean blue, top layer: raspberry/golden yellow. middle: purple/navy. And batch #2 in the plastic. Bottom layer: royal/bright yellow, Middle: orange/burgundy, Top: cerulean blue/golden yellow. The fabric at the bottom had some white spots, so I may try adding some ice and dye to the bottom of the jar first next time. I also might put a little shaved ice on top of the dye powder to limit the intense blobs of color that happened in a few spots. Overall I am very pleased with my first go at this. These are my two favorites with some close ups of the texture that the ice creates. If you are a fabric dyer and have the supplies at your house, give it a try it is quite a lot of fun!
